on one of these lists someone mentioned the chinese imation ipods often
times support ogg format, confirmed this one was not advertised as
supporting ogg but in this case the manual specs ogg as one of many
formats supported, $44 + shipping usd on ebay, I bought one for my wife
several months ago a slightly different model as they are all called
mp4's but they work good, the menus are a little quirky initially but
once you get used to it, good price & quite honestly unless you really
know what you are looking for looks just like an ipod nano, only without
the digital rights management interlocks, see ya
